10 Inner Beauty Steps to Stop Feeling Invisible

It’s a common complaint among older women: People don’t look AT me anymore; they look THROUGH me. When an older friend recently revealed that she struggled with feeling invisible, I knew she wasn’t alone. But feeling invisible isn’t always just caused by other people’s perceptions of us. It can also be impacted by our own self-awareness, self-esteem, and body image issues. If you struggle with feeling invisible, try these ten steps to increase your visibility and your engagement with the world around you.

These are all bulls**t platitudes. Try talking – you are ignored and interrupted. Try doing something you’re passionate about – you are finally acknowledged – by being criticised or prevented from doing that thing. Volunteer or invite yourself into the company of others – it’s only a matter of time before you become invisible to everyone there. Even driving – other drivers don’t even see you. I think it’s genetic. Face it- you’re invisible for life. Nothing you can do about it.
